The acclaimed Sligo visual artist and filmmaker screens her second feature film, recipient of the Arts Council of Ireland Authored Works Award. After much time in a mental hospital, Elisa returns to her ancestral home, Stradbally, where she is haunted by anxiety, addiction, and a fractured mind. Under the watchful care of Mary, the loyal housekeeper, Elisa struggles to ground herself as her Doppelgänger emerges, pulling her into a surreal descent. This poetic, unsettling film blurs fantasy, delusion, beauty, and dread. (notes courtesy of Galway Film Fleadh).
Post-show discussion with Cléa van der Grijn will follow.
